Bombers Cut Chevon Walker
Bad signing... compounded with the fact that he was used terribly... this was inevitable
-
would you make this trade?
I like Washington so I wouldn't trade him... but that's petty good value for the other two...

would you make this trade?
Oh MOAB... you and your crazy trade suggestions... BIG NO to both of those suggestions...

Lirim Hajrullahu
I see what you did there!

No End Call - CFL confirms it was an incorrect call
Some of the drivel spewed on here is incomprehensible at times.... do me a favour... walk up to Zach Anderson or Stanley Bryant, look them in the eye and tell them they're not men... You're right, we lost to the better team... save the BS rhetoric for somewhere else...

When will the Bombers expanded their PR roster?
Pretty impressive highlight film on Mr Copp... maybe he'll stick around in June (after the Stanley Cup Parade) and show up to TC...

Lirim Hajrullahu
I'm never an advocate of blaming a loss on a kicker... but there are always exceptions.... If Sergio Castillo has been on the roster this long... he must be capable... I would not cut Lirim right now.... but if he comes to Vancouver (to play) next week then I'm officially done with this coaching staff...

Ohhh for Alberta but Showing Promise
We're not in a position to be taking any solace in moral victories... if these two games were game 3 and 4 of last season I would be very optimistic... more than a year and half into this regime, there's no excuse for blowing winnable games... this is now the 3rd (or 4th) very winnable game that we let slip through...

Week 15 - Sask @ BC - (Calgary 23 Hamilton 20)
I agree... there isn't a whole lot seperating Ott, Tor, and Ham right now... and Ham might be at the biggest disadvantage without Collaros...

Good one...

Week 15 - Sask @ BC - (Calgary 23 Hamilton 20)
Henry was older and do you remember what he fetched. Burris doesn't have the injury history....

Fire O'Shea
Since they don't actually have a coach per se I agree. I think Joe Popp may finally have to pay the price with his job. Pressure from up top probably forced him to fire Higgins but now the camera is pointed right at Joe and he doesn't have anyone left to blame. Jim* Popp

Henoc Muamba signs with Als
Like Sam Hurl!

Week 15 - Sask @ BC - (Calgary 23 Hamilton 20)
so does Montreal try to sign an existing CFL qb? or bring in someone from US? Maybe Ricky Ray to Montreal next season? I could see that... makes sense for Toronto to continue with Harris and Mtl could use Ray as a stop-gap for a few years...

Grey Cup Ticket Sales
I assume "Manitoban" is in quotes because Fort Garry is no longer locally owned... and Farmery isn't made in Manitoba... I guess I just assumed it was made in Manitoba since the farm is near Neepawa... I thoroughly enjoy all three of these beers... just picked up a case of St James pale ale for the most recent Sunday night football...

Montreal Suck, BC Suck, We Suck ...
Seems nobody wants that last playoff spot.... What makes this season so frustrating is another year of what ifs... what if we changed the OC in the offseason and had a competent offense... maybe Drew stays healthy (or doesn't suffer the major injury)... maybe we beat Calgary in the game we gifted them... maybe we beat Toronto in that close game when Marve started.... maybe we show some signs of life against a bad Montreal team two weeks ago... I am still convinced that with some better coaching (specifically better offensive schemes) we have a 10-win team here.... unfortunately, that's not that case...
-
Henoc Muamba signs with Als
He had a work out with the Packers... I'm pretty sure that's why he cancelled his trip here... however I do agree that he did slight us a bit...

Westerman Top Player of the Month
That's kind of an odd way of doing it... when I heard the three names I just assumed it was Burris (offensive), Westerman (defensive), and Rainey (ST)... Nice to see Westerman is finally getting some recognition around the league...

Marc Trestman to the Riders in 2016?
Every GM in the league disagrees with you. If he were a CFL calibre QB he would be on a roster or PR somewhere. He is not being blackballed because he is Canadian. Every GM in the league has backup QBs that shouldn't be on a roster or PR somewhere...because they aren't very good at all, so, that doesn't make your statement about Yantz any more true. QBs don't count against the roster do they?, so there's no incentive to keep an NI QB stashed somewhere? Yantz can't be any worse than some of those bozos that we've seen. You would think... but you also have to remember Yantz was very good against CIS competition... the talent gap between CIS and CFL is far more significant than NCAA to CFL....

Henoc Muamba signs with Als
If he has to buy it, his cheque book would be more useful. Stupid Americans... Isn't Marco Brouillette (a Canadian) currently #10?
-
Henoc Muamba signs with Als
I agree... I love to see Harris in more of a slotback/RB role... just list him as an "offensive weapon"... Also someone mentioned they think the Esks will also sign Kelvin Muamba... just curious, what position does he play and why was he never in the draft?
-
Henoc Muamba signs with Als
If anything this shows that Mack signing Cauchy was a smart move... a ploy to try and keep Henoc here... Didn't realize it was an either/or situation. But I guess it was. Bombers, would you like the more talented Canadian or the less talented American? Oh we'll choose the American of course. I wouldn't say Muamba is better than Wild... talent-wise, they're pretty close... but Henoc's citizenship makes him infinitely more valuable...

Worst Backups in the league.
I hate to say it... but another reason he's still around is cuz Drew is likely not coming back this season... if they knew Drew was only a couple weeks away, that would essentially make Brohm a dead man walking... and borderline cruel to keep him around... Cruel? I'm sure that Brohm wants to collect his last pro football paychecks for as long as he possibly can. I just mean that theoretically he would be cut the second Willy is activated... so if Willy was actually going to be back soon, might as well release him and now and let him get on with his life/career...
